Vietnam National Telecoms (VTN) has brought Cisco TelePresence to the country for the first time and is showcasing it in two new information and communications technology (ICT) demonstration centers which the national service provider has established in Hanoi and Hochihminh City. The Cisco TelePresence systems are among a range of advanced communications technologies that will be showcased in the two centers.
The Cisco TelePresence systems enable staff and visitors at each location to participate in face-to-face meetings across a virtual table. This innovative communications technology uses life-size, ultra-high-definition 1080p video and high-quality, spatial audio and a specially designed environment to create immersive "in-person" experiences over the network.
Also being featured in the two centers are communications technologies and applications that span the public, enterprise and home, including Cisco Unified Communications, IPTV, 802.11n Wi-Fi, WiMAX, telemedicine and e-learning.
